How to install Kingston Fury Beast DDR3 Memory Kit

• Power down your PC and unplug the power cable; ground yourself to discharge any static electricity before handling components.
• Open the computer case to access the memory slots on the motherboard.
• Identify the correct DIMM slots for dual-channel operation (often the slots farther from the CPU; refer to your motherboard manual for the exact configuration).
• Align the notch on each memory module with the key in the slot, then evenly press the module straight down until the retainer clips click into place.
• Install both 8GB modules in the appropriate slots to enable dual-channel operation, ensuring a secure, level seating for each module.
• Close the case, reconnect power, and boot the system. The motherboard BIOS/UEFI should recognize the new memory automatically. If you’re aiming for the higher 1866MHz speed, enable XMP (if available) in the BIOS to apply the profile; on many Intel 100 Series systems, the memory will run at the rated speed with XMP enabled.
• Once the system boots, verify the new total memory and speed in your operating system’s system information or the BIOS/UEFI memory settings to confirm the upgrade is functioning as intended.
